Japanese calligraphy (書道 shodō) is a form of calligraphy, or artistic writing, of the Japanese language.
Calligraphy is an elementary school subject in the Japanese mandatory education
system. In high school, calligraphy is one of the choices among art
subjects, along with music or painting. It is also a popular high school
club activity, particularly with the advent of performance calligraphy.[9] Some universities, such as University of Tsukuba, Tokyo Gakugei University and Fukuoka University of Education, have special departments of calligraphic study which emphasize teacher-training programs in calligraphy.
